[Translation:Up until now, there are no documents, no papers. Add to that what they said about paying ₱80 per culled bird. There's no process, it's a mess, and it's difficult. What if our chicken get killed? Where do we go after that?]

But the DA maintains its findings, saying farm samples reacted to the H5 strain present in the farm of Ortiz-Luis.

[Translation: We lose so much money. We sell at ₱25 per kilo, it still doesn't sell. Before, people get about 10,000 heads a day, but now it's just 70 heads of chicken.]

The DA said H5 - the virus strain found in birds in San Luis - is not transmissible to humans, although additional samples were sent to an Australian laboratory to determine if it is positive for H5N6, which can affect humans.
